In the Indiana Jones films, his hat is always the object that seems to survive against the ridiculously impossible odds. We took the durability of the hat to it’s extremes by making it an object that could be used to protect our adventurer against the dangers of the tomb. In these films, the hat always ends up back on the head of the hero, so for the mechanics we made it regenerate health as long as it returned to it’s owner’s head.
